The Patriots still have a chance to bring back Blount with an unusual free-agent tender, but his opportunity to remain their early-down and red zone "power" back is NBA Live Mobile Coins gone. New England stole Gillislee from Buffalo with an offer the Bills couldn't match. It also signed Rex Burkhead and was auditioning Christine.

Michael.Gillislee, who led the NFL with 5.7 yards per carry and scored nine touchdowns as a Bills backup last season, is better than Blount for the tough yards between the tackles. He was well worth $6.4 million over two years after Burkhead got $3.15 million for 2017 alone.This is not how the Patriots have been known to spend in their backfield, and it seems odd with White still in the fold.

But Gillislee is a big upgrade over Blount, and Burkhead, who once had to fill in at wide receiver in a playoff game for Cincinnati, can be a stronger, more durable receiving back than oft-injured Dion Lewis.Fresh, healthier legs, combined with the dependable White, will give the Patriots even better balance and support for Brady.Padding the pass rush with Kony Ealy and Derek Rivers.

The Patriots essentially used their second- and third-round draft picks to bolster their defensive line. They traded the former to Carolina for Ealy, a disappointing Panthers second-round pick from 2014. They used the latter on Rivers, a sleeper prospect from Youngstown State.

With Trey Flowers breaking out as a pass rusher late in Buy NBA 2K18 MT and having a monster Super Bowl, it was easier for New England to let Jabaal Sheard leave to play 3-4 outside linebacker in Indianapolis. Ealy and Rivers are the usual body types from which they get the most in their edge rotation, a la Flowers and Rob Ninkovich before he moved to linebacker.
